Smartphones weren’t designed to take on fully featured desktop first-person-shooters but with an increasing amount of processing power and memory being packed into today’s handsets, games such as Quake are finding their way onto mobile devices.

Two of the most powerful mobile processors on the market at the moment are the 1GHz ARM-based Snapdragon processor from Qualcomm and Samsung’s own 1GHz ARM-based Hummingbird processor. The devices are high-powered, yet require lower power meaning they are perfect for devices such as smartphones.

You wouldn’t think there would be much difference between the two processors, that is until you see how well they perform when a port of Quake 2 is run on an HTC Desire (Snapdragon) and Samsung Galaxy S (Hummingbird), the difference is quite remarkable:

Yup. I couldnt find the two phones running the same game.
To be far.... that iphone 4 looks like the brightness is turned all the way down.

I was impressed with the galaxy S performance when pinned against iphone 4 on other videos. Last weekend, I stopped into my local ATT store as i was waiting for a haircut. I played with both the samsung galaxy s and iphone 4.
Iphone 4 is a beautiful piece of hardware. ios seems boring to me... but very polished.
Galaxy s looks similar to an iphone 3Gs... but still has that samsung build style ( instinct etc). In the performance dept... amazing( the screen is vibrant and displays deep colors). If i was the avg consumer... the iphone 4 would probably win me over.
